I love yours. Someone else on this challenge talked about rejection as a way for us to know it's not the right choice. That's hard when it comes to our writing. Al I can tell you is you just have to keep plugging away at it and develop a thick skin. So nice to "meet" you.<br>KarenKaren Walkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13290540851231505128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981933340378825849.post-33239894186628546002011-04-16T20:02:45.043-05:002011-04-16T20:02:45.043-05:00Sometimes a "no" is for the best, though...Sometimes a "no" is for the best, though it isn't always to see it that way. I've sent out stories before they were ready and looking at them now, I would be mortified if they had been published!<br><br>Sometimes I ask again--later or a different person. I got a "no" on an article query once, only to re-query the same editor a year later and she bought the article.

I learnt the hard way that just because I got a no doesn't invalidate me it might mean that the problem is with the person, or I need to revise what I have presented, or like kids today they always ask 'why' and then they keep asking until you give in....the lesson, don't give up until you get a yes!, great to stop by from the A-Z challenge. Have a blessed week!Amanda Troughthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06065774506000203979noreply@blogger.com
